Well said MrB but remember they used BSA power on some track inspection vehicles.

No the "Bikers" cheated slightly. they ran Newbridge - Levisham and return then road move to Grosmont for a run through the station.
Trolley working on the bank is not encouraged in any form.
Nearly every trolley on the NYMR has been disposed of. The only ones that remain should be fully braked versions.
